A misty one at the Cedara tunnel on the NATCOR mainline between Johannesburg and Durban

The train was heading towards JHB
Hauled by the Transnet/Spoornet class 18E locomotives.

excellent video really clever use of the tunnel to capture the train cutting through all those Zol trees

Thank you, I was surprised to see the actual shape of the train been cut out on all of those zol trees. 🤣

You nail it with this train coming out of the tunnel

[@jacomarais1976]

Thank you 🙏🙏

Beautiful tunnel shots! That seems to be a special place.

[@jacomarais1976]

Thank you, my friend. It is a special place indeed. One off the longest tunnels here in South African. The Cedara tunnel is 6.9 km long.

Weeds and bushes. There's a lot of work that needs to be done. Prasa is also guilty of neglecting some stations along the mainline to Cato Ridge.

I agree, my friend, Transnet also needs to come to the party. The maintenance is shocking out here on the NATCOR mainline.
